psy_commando Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Some of you may know that I'm working on a source engine Starfox mod, but recently we had to replace our writers, due to them not having done anything... But that's another story. So yeah, basically, I'm looking for someone that likes writing Starfox fanfics, is talented, and familiar with the universe. And Someone that won't mind working with some constraints, basically following the timeline of the Starfox comics, and using elements already written by others. The plot being written is pretty light-heated, mostly like the comics, minus lots of cheesiness. But it will have its serious moments. I can give you more details if you contact me. The reason I'm posting this here is to get someone more motivated about starfox, than people around moddb. I hope this is the right place to post this, I tried contacting DZ about it, but didn't hear from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkyway64 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I dunno. On one hand, I know a lot about this series and am a decent writer. On the other, I am very lazy and only a decent writer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkstarfox Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I know about the universe but I'm not inclined to obsessive detail. On the other hand I am an excellent writer, and I love to do so. I have not written any Star Fox fan fiction since IDK freshmen year of high school? But I think it would be easy, and enjoyable, to get back into the swing of things. Are you looking for a single writer or a few of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, it's fine. it's been a little while, I sent the pm on July 18th. But its alright, I should have made more efforts to contact you or the mod team when I saw no reply.

Are you looking for a single writer or a few of them? I'm looking for a single one, for now. And no need to be pumping out starfox fics, its just that we'd need someone that can write on Starfox and loves it. And won't just disappear on us or constantly delay because they don't like the concept. On 8/17/2011 at 8:33 AM, Milkyway64 said: I dunno.

You know its up to you, do you want to involve yourself into a project like this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkyway64 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 By "very lazy" I mean I'll get an idea to do a project, like, say, this one, and then I'll proceed to put it off because actually doing it requires effort. =V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psygonis Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Ohhhhh yeeeeeeeah! \o/ Reveal hidden contents Hey DZ, by the way, why not lending him our national stfx so he trains to write decent storylines before trying to mess up SoL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkstarfox Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Well if you only want one writer, give me the gist of what you want done and I can tell you whether or not I'm up for it. Lol, I am more then willing to talk business. And any writing is always fun, even if it is writing for starfox fan game :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos_Leader Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 0_o ... I am getting in on this for sure. I write Star Fox, very much so, and with excellent writing ability I'm told. If anybody can help you with this project, and if you're serious about making it, then you would do very well to consider me for this writing position. It'd be an honor to work on something like your project. kkstarfox, I think you and I could maybe talk a about this with psy_commando, and decide who is more suited to psy's needs. I'd hate for one of us to be brought in, only for there to be major clashes/issues that gum up the works. Anyway, that's me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psy_commando Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 Thanks for the offers guys, I'll pm you pretty soon I've been a little busy lately. Its going to be hard to choose one out of you all though..

kkstarfox Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Well it depends on how they want it written. I write novels and a have worked on writing plays (script format) I'm not as good in writing script but I'm a pretty damn good writer none the less. That's what I'm going to college to be on top of that But yeah I know the star fox universe, I have played Star Fox and Star Fox 2, read the comic and remember most of it! So with that being said, in the end I think the words will speak for themselves But whatever the outcome a fan game for Star Fox seems like a fun idea.

chaos_Leader Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I may not be a professional, university trained novelist, but I do work well with script and script-like formats and visual settings. My theatre background and film dabbling helps there in that respect. And like most others here on this site, I am very, very familiar with the series, its fandom, and its lore; possibly moreso since I'm currently working on my Star Fox: Legacy project to write a complete backstory for the series. More than anything, it'll probably come down to what exactly you want from your writer, as opposed to the writer's "skill level". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fira-Astrali Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I may be able to help you with this. I have some experience writing in script format but most of my writing ability leans towards novels. I'm told my writing is of good quality, I would be going to school for it if my dad didnt want to have to deal with a starving artist ^^; And I really, really love to write. My understanding of the star fox universe is pretty good, and it'd be nice to help out on a fan game And one based of the comics could be pretty interesting.
